Monitoring a Datastore

Has anyone tried to monitor a VM datastore usages using vFoglight?  In the process of turning/converting monitors over to use vFoglight and was hoping that someone has gone down that path already. We have been doing it for quite some time with vCenter as you can see below. Was hoping that there was a Cartidge that did the same thing. Thanks ahead of time.

Hello Al

Look at vBundle: http://communities.quest.com/docs/DOC-4689

It´s a free add-on which contains many new views, reports and rules. We are currently evaluating many of the things in vBundle to add it to vFoglight in an upcoming release. Until then we recommend you use vBundle to acchive your goal.

There are two rules for datastore utilization depending what you prefer, % Usage or GB Free. Please check the pdf on above link for details.

Rule Name                                    Comment:

vBundle Datastore Capacity           Alerts on Datastore % Full.

vBundle Datastore Storage Free     Alerts on Datastore GB Free
